Are there Herbs that will deter Deer from the garden?

Yep, I agree completely.
Absolutely the only thing that has a chance of working.

I've tried everything else.  If read the deer don't like this,
they don't like that.  Well, the truth is, they may not like some
kinds of plants, but they'll eat them anyway.

Last year I put up a 6 foot high fence:

I have high hopes for this working.

6 ft is not high enough, they can clear that flat footed.

Yes, yes, yes my electric fence works great for my raised vegetable
gardens but I was hoping for something a little more attractive for my
rose garden. I too have tried everything else so I guess I will have
to fire up more juice.
